reference|| |---|---|---| |Summary of the main
achievements of the charity,
identifying the difference the
charity’s work has made to the
circumstances of its
beneficiaries and any wider
benefits to society as a whole.|Para 1.20|With the onset of the pandemic, we closed our
face-to-face support groups. By 1stApril 2020
we had adapted to working totally online. The
provision of online support throughout
lockdown helped to protect our members from
the isolation of lockdown and break down the
barriers of loneliness. During this year we
exceeded all targets for number of members
and amount of support given.
•
38% increase in members attending
support groups
•
255% increase in counselling
•
6338 volunteer hours donated
These increases did not have a positive impact
on income, however, due to subscriptions
being frozen for six months of the year, as a
consideration of hardships faced by our
members in relation to covid19.
We ran a fundraising event, Tour de Trans,
where one of our volunteers and her son cycled
from Land’s End to John O’Groats in August,
joining hands with similar organisations the
length of the country, taking a positive,
inclusive and unifying approach to raising
awareness of trans issues across Britain.
We were invited to join the bid for
Southampton City of Culture. Ran a survey
about trans folx experiences of healthcare
(soon to be published as a white paper).
Delivered online Trans Awareness training for
external organisations, allowing them to
activelydemonstrate their commitment to| inclusion and diversity within their workforce, and to help inform and increase respect and confidence when interacting with trans and gender diverse people. ## **Additional information (optional)** You may choose to include further statements where relevant about: |Achievements against

financial position at the end of
the period|Para 1.21|Beyond Reflections’ financial position at the
end of the period was almost identical to that
of the year before.
The charity has maintained high engagement
with subscribers and donors. It has also been
successful in obtaining grant funding, both
project related and for core costs.| |---|---|---|---| |||Income this year was £122,330 just £203 more
than last year.
Spending was similarly controlled, showing
good budgetary control through the year.
2021 expenditure £101,785
2020 expenditure £101,935
Despite a pandemic and pivoting to online
provision of services, and home working,
Beyond Reflections managed to add £20,546 to
its financial reserves.| |---|---|---| |Statement explaining the

£3,765 Covid 19 Relief

£21,056 Donations
£4,795 Subs

Many fundraising opportunities were cancelled

objectives including any social
investment policy adopted|Para 1.46|The charity has no investments, nor plans to do
so| |A description of the principal
risks facing the charity|Para 1.46|Main risks to the charity as identified in the
PESTLE in our Business Plan are mostly
reputational rather than financial, although a
demise in reputation could naturally have
financial repercussions. The main risks are:
•
Transphobia in wider society resulting
in changes in government policy
removing legal rights and protections
from trans+ people
•
Malicious misrepresentation of the
work we do as therapists supporting
people to understand themselves
better and to make healthy decisions
through skilled application of person-
centred, non-directive therapy as
'conversion', this is interrelated to the
above point where increased anti-trans
rhetoric and hysteria could seriously
threaten the work we do and our
members
•
Cyber attacks to breach our data
security with malicious intent to
identify our members and harm them
through blackmail or publicly outing
them
•
Further funding cuts to statutory
services increasing the number of
people needing to access our support
for longer time periods as they are not
able to access gender care through the
NHS in a timely manner
•
The economic downturn reducing
available funding, households having
less free income to donate and
pressure on grant funders increasing
•
Continued legal challenges against
treatment for trans young people
resulting in more young adults needing
our support
•
Increased mental health needs of our
beneficiary group (lack of funding for
MH services, increased transphobia in
services and society driving poor
mental health)| |||•
Rising cost of living meaning our
volunteers have less free time for
volunteering
•
Rising cost of fuel impacting our
running costs| |---|---|---| |Other||No employee was paid more than £60,000
No Trustee received renumeration or
reimbursement of expenses.| ## **Structure, Governance and Management** |Description of charity’s trusts:||| |---|---|---| |Type of governing document

(e.g unincorporated
association,CIO)|Para 1.25|CIO| |Trustee selection methods
including details of any
constitutional provisions e.g.
election to post or name of any
person or body entitled to
appoint one or more trustees|Para 1.25|(a) Every charity trustee must be a natural
person.
(b) No one may be appointed as a charity
trustee: • if they are under the age of 16 years;
or • if they would automatically cease to hold
office under the provisions of clause 15(1)(f).
(c) No one is entitled to act as a charity trustee
whether on appointment or on any re-
appointment until they have expressly
acknowledged, in whatever way the charity
trustees decide, their acceptance of the office
of charity trustee.
(d) At least one of the trustees of the CIO must
be 18 years of age or over. If there is no trustee
aged at least 18 years, the remaining trustee or
trustees may act only to call a meeting of the
charity trustees or appoint a new charity
trustee.
The Trustees were subject to a skills audit and
the Charity was able to successfully recruit for
the areas in which a weakness was identified.| ## **Additional information (optional)** You may choose to include further statements where relevant about: |Policies and procedures
